Jumpers and Jazz in July Festival
The main events are situated in Palmerin Street, Warwick
Queensland's quirkiest winter festival is back for its 23rd year, bringing warmth, creativity, and community spirit to Warwick and the Southern Downs. Across ten vibrant days at the end of July, the streets come alive with colour, music, and art against the crisp backdrop of a country winter.
The festival's heart lies in its spectacular tree jumpers – around 90 trees wrapped in extraordinary textile artworks designed by artists from across Australia and around the world. These imaginative creations transform Warwick's CBD into a one-of-a-kind outdoor gallery.
But the festival magic extends far beyond the tree-lined streets. Visitors can dive into a packed program of workshops, exhibitions, and pop-up artisan markets, alongside beloved favourites like the Grand Automobile Display, hearty country breakfasts, and swing dance sessions. At night, jazz pours from laneways, pubs, and performance spaces, with everything from smooth classics to bold, modern renditions.
Whether you're here for the quirky yarnbombing, the get up 'n dance live jazz, or the warm country hospitality, Jumpers and Jazz has something for everyone. With more than two decades of history, the festival continues to grow as a celebration of creativity, connection, and community in the heart of regional Queensland.
